The Jolion was a barnstormer for Chinese brand Haval, quickly becoming its best-selling model, Haval took this as a sign and introduced a sportier version called the Jolion S a few months later. The Jolion S incorporated special features such as launch control, paddle shifters, an uprated turbo, and red detailing, but as a standard package, it was already quite good.

One of the standard features of the Jolion is a set of high-end LED headlights; this is what you need to do if one or both are not working anymore.

LED headlight bulbs have a lifespan exceeding 15 000 hours of operation and should never need to be replaced during the lifespan of the vehicle. If the bulbs do, however, stop working, it is best to take the car to an official Haval dealer or workshop to have the problem addressed as the problem may run deeper than a simple fused LED unit. Accessing the LED headlight units is not difficult but this task should be left to a professional technician at an approved workshop.
